Sarah Riddlemoser is tuned in to what a family wants in a home. As the founder of an all-female boutique architecture firm and a mother of two, she gets it. “We are able to relate as parents and as women,” she says. Drive through Lyon Village, Buckingham or any other number of Arlington neighborhoods and you’ll see the firm’s work in houses that are both fetching and functional. While the county’s notoriously tight lots can be a challenge in building a home for a full-size family, Moser Architects is up to the task. “I don’t like to build big,” says Riddlemoser. “If it’s designed well…homes can be efficient and charming without being large.”
